Thor and the Warriors Four #3-#4



So far we have seen:

A bunch of kids display more sense than Peter Parker
No, I will not stop with the One More Day jokes, darnit
Thor agree to help the kids save their grandmother, if he can
An incredibly helpful nurse
An incredibly helpful old guy
An incredibly helpful person who turns out to be Loki
The Enchantress turn all of the adults present into toddlers
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Thor and the Warriors Four #1-#2


 
I hear a lot of complaints about how comics nowadays are just too dark and gritty.  Most of those complaints come from me.  So imagine my happy surprise when I discovered this delightful four-part story from 2010 in which no one gets maimed or axed, our heroes hardly angst at all, and even the villains are all snuggly-wuggly!

(Also, that first cover is a liar.  Thor doesn’t even show up until Issue Two.  I don’t know why this surprises me.)
